OCR GCSE English Language mock papers

Both OCR-style English Language papers, with unseen sources printed in full and numbered line by line, reading questions in the board's own wording, and a writing task with a choice. Short questions come with mark points; longer answers are marked by you against board-style level descriptors, indicative content and a model, then you get a predicted grade. English Language is not tiered.
